1. start evolution with RTL languages, like Arabic.
2. go to views that contain etable or etree.

etable and etree do not display items form right to left.(gtktreeview can do this.)

Djihed Afifi, you seem to have fixed lot of RTL things in Evolution in the last month. This might be just another thing for you :)

Screenshot of 2.32 with LANG=ar_AE.utf8 shows small improvements.
Note that Evolution is not 100% translated to Arabic.

Comment 9 André Klapper 2021-05-19 12:27:25 UTC
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. 
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new bug report ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
